It won't be entirely new to me since I lived in FL 12 years ago, but I can't say I am looking forward to it <G>. San Diego weather is really hard to beat!!!

Oh, I think I'm going to be sea sick! How can you pass up an opportunity to ride on a bonafide, electricfide six-car monorail. The transportation of the future. The quicker way to the Kingdom. The bird's eye-view of America's vacation destination.

Who wants to wait on a smelly boat dock when you can be serenaded by a chorus of "All the way down" at the monorail station? Who wants to stand on a boat with 600 people around them when you can stand on a monorail with 25 people? NOT I!!!
Not I, indeed.

Chrisrails..c'mon! That kind of transportation is only avail in Japan, and I ain't talking TDR Line. Several japanese cities have monorail systems that kick WDW's "waiting for traffic clearance" monorail fleet's royal arse when it comes to efficiency, quick and ON TIME service.

Nice to see a monorail driver like you, Chris, who so obviously loves his job.

Not like the one I encountered last year who told me she'd never be on the monorail if not working it - she was actually kinda down on it. Bad CM! Bad, bad bad!

I am stuck here being single-mom while my husband is back in LA taking care of his dad, and here you guys are only in town a few weeks and you are already wearing out your APs! It's not fair, I tell you! I should be playing! At least I can see the tops of the fireworks from the back bedroom window while my son is in the bath.

The weather has been awesome... Enjoy it while you can but stock up on those umbrellas and ponchos, 'cause those cumulonimbus clouds are going to break loose with thundershowers every afternoon, starting in just a few weeks.
